Well, I hope you’re happy.

Thanks to you and your Zazzle purchases, we have finally funded our Project Linus blanket drive! Which means that today, I’ll be hiring an Etsy seller to hand make blankets for seriously ill and traumatized children.

So thank you all very much for your support and kindness. I’m really happy about this project, which is our fourth since starting the Alchemy Fund.

That sets our counter back down to zero, which means we’re starting to raise funds for our next charitable effort. To that end, we have added three lovely new products in our Zazzle shop.

New T-Shirt
New mousepad
New mug

I don’t have the energy to explain what the hell this means, but if you frequent the Facebook group, you already know. And if you don’t, well, what’s your problem? Do you know how much fun we have over there?

Well, not very much really. But occasionally some dipshit will come in and tell us that blankets kill babies, or demand that we unsubscribe them because they think that’s our job, and we laugh and laugh and laugh.

Good times.

As you may know, I put up links to all these posts on Regretsy’s Facebook page.

In the discussion thread for the Skants post I put up earlier today, I came across this comment:

As an experiment, I just went and put one of my tops on upside-down on my legs. Yep, the neckline (bottom of “skirt”) hit right about there. It actually fit surprisingly well, and stayed up by itself, if completely silly (sorry no pics). I have dozens of these skants in my closet, who knew. Now to disseminate this “fashion” to all the young wanna-be-hipsters, so we can giggle at them. What a waste of all that vintage fabric though, I bet a good designer could have made something cool.

And it was like a light bulb went off!

A very dim light bulb, but still.

SKANTS CONTEST!

Send me a picture of you wearing your long sleeved top or sweater upside down on your legs. The best Skants will get a super special prize*, plus bragging rights.

Email your pix, no larger than 560 pixels across, and about 100kb. Deadline is Thursday midnight (PST). I will announce the winners Friday.

Remember, attitude is everything.

I think what this is trying to say is that you should let the beauty you love be the things that you are doing for the love of the beauty and the doing, instead of just doing the things you do for the doing of the doing, without the loving and the beauty, which would just be beautyless doings of things.

And I think there’s a lesson in that for all of us.

Talk about a missed opportunity! If this had been the “Asian Pee” keychain, she could have done in it yellow!
